<p>
  <b>Analysis:</b><br/> Transcend may very well be the pacesetter here.  He has the talent to win this, if and only if, he can use his tenacity to fight off the speed of Black Caviar, the acceleration of So You Think and Frankel, and the deep-closing kick of talented Caleb’s Posse.  He is currently ranked in the top 20 in the world, but is ranked in the top 5 dirt/synthetic milers.  He has proven he loves this synthetic surface, and can throttle down if no one decides to go after him.  
  His biggest problem in this race will be Black Caviar.  He has to decide if he is going to overtake her earlier and cross over, allow her to go to the lead instead and hope she succumbs to distance limitations, or simply try to freakishly open up the race to a lead that the closers stalkers and cannot overcome.  His biggest weapons are his consistency and ability to slow a pace down if needed.  He must use both of those to their optimum here.

<p><b>Bottom Line:</b><br/> he may be the longest shot in the field, but I believe he deserves that.  Against any other field in the world, he can win this, but this is a serious race with the best racehorses in the world; he must be peaking and at the best form of his entire career to place here.
